Patient's question:
Before giving birth, a thorough examination revealed vaginitis. There were no significant symptoms, just occasional itching. However, after giving birth, lower abdominal pain has been persistent, sometimes accompanied by severe abdominal pain. An ultrasound examination revealed pelvic inflammatory disease. After treatment for a period of time, the condition recurred. How should vaginitis and pelvic inflammatory disease be treated?Doctor's answer:
For female inflammation, most treatments are relatively slow, and it is prone to recurrence. For vaginitis, topical medications are primarily used for treatment. Meanwhile, pelvic inflammation is mostly chronic, and antibiotics can be considered for treatment, along with taking traditional Chinese medicine for gynecological issues. When necessary, local physical therapy and medication application through the rectum can be used in combination. Through the rectal wall, the treatment effect can be reduced.
